Why New Leaders Succeed Or Fail

ABOUT THE EPISODE What happens when a new leader takes over an organization? Katherine J. Klein, Edward H. Bowman Professor of Management at The Wharton School, explains why leadership transitions can dramatically reshape employee motivation and performance, and why successful successors must “read the room” before pushing change. The conversation explores coaching, organizational behavior, school leadership, CEO succession, and what companies can learn from leadership transitions at institutions like Apple.
